What is SMED: Streamlining Machine Changeovers about?

SMED is a method for reducing changeover times on manufacturing equipment. It was developed by Shigeo Shingo in the 1950s-1970s. The key aspects of SMED include separating changeover tasks into internal and external activities, converting internal tasks to external where possible, and optimizing all changeover activities. Checklists, shadow boards, and changeover preparation are important tools for implementing SMED. The goal is to reduce changeover times from hours to just 10 minutes or less.
